First of all, sorry for my late response. Travis uses biblatex. And
while we're at it: Travis, how do insert this macro? Do you type
\citep{<key>} or do you hit `C-c m RET citep RET' or use Reftex? I'm
asking since you're asking for the fontification; I think the completion
support (see below) is much more needed.

That was also was my first answer, but then I realized that biblatex.el
doesn't have support for natbib compat macros (cf. biblatex manual,
§3.8.9 natbib Compatibility Commands). I asked Travis to file this bug
report (thanks btw), I think the appended patch fixes the issue. It is
mostly taken from natbib.el, function `LaTeX-biblatex-natbib-note-args'
is a modified version of `natbib-note-args' and I think that `(when
TeX-arg-cite-note-p' is not really needed, but I didn't touch it since
it doesn't hurt either.
